Student bags job after desperate roadside placard-waving plea

Hugh Chadwick went to extreme measures to secure work - but his efforts have paid off

A student who resorted to advertising his availability for work at a busy road junction for days on end has hit the jackpot after clinching a position with renowned engineering company.

For hard-up Hugh Chadwick it was a dream come true when the offer came through from Rotech Laboratories.

Left penniless after enrolling on an HND course in aerospace engineering, the 20-year-old felt he had to take drastic action.

Standing on the side of a busy road in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, determined Hugh brandished a placard which read 'Please Give Me A Job', with a smiley face drawn on the top-right corner for extra effect.

                                                  

His persistence has now paid off handsomely, with Hugh due to start in his new role on Monday.

Hugh, from Solihull, told the Birmingham Mail: "I got a job offer from Rotech and went to see them on Friday. It went really well. They offered me a job as a mechanical testing technician and I start on Monday - I can't wait."

a black person would NEVER EVER do something like this .

not so much because of rep or being too cool, its because most of us do not like being the centre of attention unlike white people .

fair play to the lad its good that he showed abit of initiative

Many people have done it on busy routes within the square mile

and I'm sure a Black banker got a job doing this in Bank somewhere

i once read of some british guy (and black)who got into property mgt and running his own company

just from seeing some breh driving a porshe or thereabouts and walking up to him to ask how he can make the money he did

and the guy took him under his wing.

i guess if no one here has or needs that motivation the results will be flawed.
